This was supposed to be a golden, glorious week for New York baseball fans.
The Mets are in the playoffs! The Yankees are too! A fated Subway Series, the first time the teams would be meeting in the World Series in more than two decades, is but a few wins away. You’d think fans would be happier than a kid in Cooperstown.
But then, on Monday, Mayor Eric Adams marched down Fifth Avenue during a Columbus Day parade, wearing a baseball cap that pleased exactly zero New York sports fans.
The hat featured a Mets logo on the right side and a Yankees logo on the left.
